It's really the best album ever. I had chills listening to it again.

My Bone Machine arrives today (price was reduced on Amazon). I’ve been purposely avoiding listening to this record since the vinyl repress announcement so it’ll be a fresh listen turned up to 11.

I’ve gotta get FWY and Black Rider, too, but I’ll wait for the prices to go down a bit.

yeah, BM is a must.

Time to break out the Rain Dogs vinyl…

Here's the radio show with Iggy and Tom. I'm only about 20 minutes in: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/m001st7l

i find it interesting that they name drop every other guest artist's band but it's just "guitarist" Stone Gossard. Do you think they don't know he's from Pearl Jam or what?

"As for Iggy Pop, the punk icon released his latest studio album ‘Every Loser’ at the start of the year. The LP marked his 19th full-length studio release and featured a star-studded line-up of rock legends, including Chad Smith of Red Hot Chili Peppers, bassist Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses, Blink 182’s Travis Barker, guitarist Stone Gossard, former Chili Peppers guitarist Josh Klinghoffer, Jane’s Addiction’s Dave Navarro and Eric Avery, and late Foo Fighter’s drummer Taylor Hawkins."

That is strange.

Yeah, they really missed an opportunity not using current Pearl Jam touring musician Josh Klinghoffer.

Yeah I noticed that too. I think most people have no idea who Stone Gossard is (which is why it was weird that they didn't mention Pearl Jam).

Anyways the radio show was kind of what I expected, lots of music trivia and songs I had never heard before, but the best part was obviously the dialog between Tom and Iggy. I just love hearing those two laughing and enjoying each others company. I spent most of the two hours with a grin on my face. Alex Chilton's Bangkok was an interesting choice from Tom. You can clearly hear the influence in Swordfishtrombones and Rain Dogs.

He's not dead

Been going through a TW rediscovery phase. Big Time is truly amazing, one of his best, but in desperate need of a remaster
